SHORT HISTORY OF MEETING

Newtown Square Monthly Meeting was established in 1939 by Concord Quarterly Meeting (Hicksite)
out of Newtown Preparative Meeting (Delaware County) at the dissolution of the original Goshen
Monthly Meeting. It became a united meeting in 1952 by affiliation with the two Concord
Quarterly Meetings. In 1955, the monthly meeting was transferred to the newly-formed Haverford
Quarterly Meeting. From 1983 to 1988, the monthly meeting was under the oversight of Haverford
Quarterly Meeting. However, it continued to hold regular meetings for business. Newtown Square
is currently an active monthly meeting.

Collection is open for research. Access is through microfilm, if available.
